From starting Essential Print Services over eight years ago, Yvonne has gone on to not just build a well-known, highly regarded and successful local business as a solo-entrepreneur, but also notch up an incredible number of outstanding achievements and accolades along the way…
Not just a devoted and passionate business owner, Yvonne is a UK Small Business Champion who has been invited to Downing Street twice in recognition of her entrepreneurship. She’s a non-executive board member of Marketing Derby, regularly features in the Derby Telegraph Inspirational 250, has been featured in Forbes Magazine, is the founder of the Derby Hub and has made the shortlist in the 2019 Great British Entrepreneur Of The Year Awards (winner yet to be announced) – and that’s just to name a few!
In this candid and refreshingly open interview, Yvonne shares the truth about what it’s really like to start and run your own business in a jam-packed interview that covers a lot of ground – from her experience of being thrown into the role of a business owner and dealing with the challenges that come with it, to making business fun and knowing which opportunities are worthy of your time.
